Not sure what the trim piece is called but it appears that I am missing a piece on each side of my convertible top at each top corner above the header gasket. There are two empty screw holes there and I can not get the gasket set I bought to cover the top corner were the conv top meets the top of the A post. Any suggestions or does anyone have these parts available.
Thanks, Tim

Shot a picture of the area please!
 
is it the wings that help hold down the header seal? if so I have the tracing stashed somewhere around here in my mess

You are welcome, that's what this forum is for. That thin inner stub fits right with the long header channel you might have to tweak it (I had to file the corners square for it to fit really good to the seal.) what is weird is that it's the first almost complete piece that I have found on over 7 63-66 convertibles and most of them did not have one.

If you have any 66 parts for sale I need a couple.
Either way, thanks again for the help.
